Watch with glittering eyes


“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you 
because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. 
Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.” 

 Roald Dahl

Tara Hardy


'New Yorker'

'4 Less'

'Road Trip'

'Best Friends'

Lately, I've been hooked on retro, vintage, and indie art and films. 
I love the romantic depiction of the females in Tara Hardy's artwork.

Andy's Superstar

Edith Minturn Sedgwick: 
beautiful artist and actress,
and all around loon.
Remembered for setting the world on fire...
and escaping the clutches of her terrifying family.

Made friends with eeeeverybody, and anybody... 
creating chaos and uproar wherever she went. 

Divorced as many times as she married,

she leaves only good wishes behind...

-Edie & Andy, Factory Girl (2006)

Never Let Me Go


Our bodies are only designed to last so long. 
How do we face the knowledge that our time is limited?
-Kazuo Ishiguro



It had never occurred to me that our lives, 
so closely interwoven, 
could unravel with such speed. 
If I'd known, maybe I'd have kept tighter hold of them
and not let unseen tides pull us apart. 
-Kathy H., Never Let Me Go




Maybe none of us really understand what we've lived through, 
or feel we've had enough time. 
-Kathy H., Never Let Me Go
